just love being in the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz E220 CDI..
need to clarify something, emergency ambulances from scdf have a cut off speed limit whereby you can't exceed a certain speed limit so don't think suka suka can go like nobody biz..

Good for you!
-
erm. sorry if this question is noob.
why is advance booking more expensive than current booking? -
advance booking more expensive cos it usually means the cabby have to forgo 30 mins of biz before the pick up time... imagine pick up at 9pm mariott, at 830pm me at suntec, can still pick pax? in half an hour i can collection at least $10... so i usually dont take advance booking unless wee hours or i am a millionaire cabby or you are F1 type of cabby.... haha current booking no such time loss or extra stress... hence cheaper loh... reasonable?

Send whatever you found back to Comfort or your taxi's company so they can credit you with merit points and if it's a 'big deal' find, the company can make a big halabaloo and you may find yourself in the newspaper. -

wau Vee, u kena alot of drunk issit? haha... 1. No experience but not keen... very ley cheh cos u need to park your cab and take cab back later... e.g. if clark to tamp cab fare $20... time taken 2 way is almost 50min incl waste time with drunkard.... no $70, me not keen... 2. so far, only few pax spill a bit into my cab... they cleaned up a bit can liao.... no extra charge... but if really merlion, wau lan eh... I will demand at least $30... equal to 1 hour of loss income to clean up.... phew! 3. go police station... take money from his wallet... leave him there...settle liao... 4. me wont ask whether me can refuse or not... if badly drunk, i just refuse... knn... go where also cant say properly... how to go?... waste time... later merlion some more... 5. Taxi driver usually gives way to one another as long as it is not to switch lane to pick up a potential pax.... standard... my usual practice, if very drunk fellow alone, dont pick...not worth the hassel and risk if very drunk with friend, i will ask and make sure drunk go down first or together... otherwise reject... like that loh

Merlion in my cab ? I sent him to petrol station , insist he/she wash for me . Money i got , no nig deal , if no , police station . My reason : This is a public transport .
Drunkard don't pay me ? Police lor ..... I report police damn ke-qi liao ..... Once my colleague beaten up a drunkard . He knew drunkard usually everytime got spot , so he off his MDT at night , so that our data base cannot detect his pick-up and drop point point . ( Note : MDT can determine the pick up and drop off point when the meter is suppressed ) . If the drunkard report police , also cannot catch the culprit , drunkard got beaten up damn lu-ghee .
Got money thing i will not say no . If drunkard got money , i will take .
I give way to anyone filthering into my lane . Not that i nice chap , i hate troubles . Only at a certain cirmumstances , if he over took me , and slow down infront of me , then i will jack him back and slow down in front of him.
Wanna play ? I play .
